Competency 9--Internet

Vandergrift’s Website

“This website is a means of sharing ideas and information with all those interested in literature for children and young adults.”

“This website began with my own love of children's literature and my belief in the power of both that literature and the children for whom it is created.”

Dr. Kaye E. Vandergrift

After unquestionable consideration I settled on this reputable website which contains a wealth of information on children’s and young adult literature. It is wonderfully constructed and includes literary works, books lists, questions with answers to any literature information you may need, a children’s literacy test (test your own knowledge), and a wonderful site on 9/11 and children. Another consideration for my choice is the website awards it has earned.


The metasearch engine I used to find this website was SurfWax.
